Seam 2.1.1GA on Glassfish generates an exception depending on where the end-conversation is placed in a pages.xml ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-4178 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-4178 Project: Seam 2 Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.1.1.GA Environment: JD 1.6 Seam 2.1.1.GA Glassfish 2.1 Reporter: Arshad Mahmood I have an application with an edit page named edit.xhtml, it has a form and submit buttion which executes the following action #{currencyAction.save}. The currencyAction is an EJB Stateful session bean. I am coming across a weird error when the action is execute:- If my pages.xml is as follows, everything works as expected (i.e. the bean is saved and I get redirected to the view page). <!-- page parameters --> <param name="currencyId" value="#{currencyAction.currencyId}" /> <!-- join the conversation --> <begin-conversation join="true" /> <!-- action: persist --> <navigation from-action="#{currencyAction.save}"> <end-conversation before-redirect="true" /> <rule if-outcome="persisted"> <redirect view-id="/settings/currencies/view.xhtml"> <param name="currencyId" value="#{currencyAction.currencyId}" /> </redirect> </rule> </navigation> ** BUT **, if I change the end-conversation to be within the if-outcome then I get an exception. I.e. if the pages,xml is changed to <!-- action: persist --> <navigation from-action="#{currencyAction.save}"> <rule if-outcome="persisted"> <end-conversation before-redirect="true" /> *** CHANGE HERE **** <redirect view-id="/settings/currencies/view.xhtml"> <param name="currencyId" value="#{currencyAction.currencyId}" /> </redirect> </rule> </navigation> The exception is as follows:- [#|2009-05-15T10:08:58.045+0100|INFO|sun-appserver2.1|javax.enterprise.system.container.ejb|_ThreadID=24;_ThreadName=TP-Processor12;| javax.ejb.TransactionRolledbackLocalException: Exception thrown from bean; nested exception is: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: EntityManagerFactory not found in JNDI : java:comp/env/smartkidsBSEMF java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: EntityManagerFactory not found in JNDI : java:comp/env/smartkidsBSEMF at org.jboss.seam.persistence.ManagedPersistenceContext.getEntityManagerFactoryFromJndiOrValueBinding(ManagedPersistenceContext.java:245) at org.jboss.seam.persistence.ManagedPersistenceContext.initEntityManager(ManagedPersistenceContext.java:78) at org.jboss.seam.persistence.ManagedPersistenceContext.getEntityManager(ManagedPersistenceContext.java:107) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor423.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) The bean values are persisted to the database, but then this exception is raised.
